The Matte Black model will join the already available Gloss Black, Metallic White, and Matte Grey variants. Here's our roundup.
Let's take a look at the scooter
The new Matte Black model retains the underpinnings of the existing models. Hence, it features a sporty look with a big front apron and a tall windscreen. The headlights and turn indicators are also packed into the front apron. Further, the scooter gets a digital instrument panel along with a multi-function key slot, DC mobile-charging socket, and an all-LED setup for lighting.

Suzuki Burgman Street: On the road
The new model, just like other variants, comes equipped with disc brakes on the front and drum brakes on the rear wheels along with Combined Braking System (CBS) to avoid accidents due to skidding. For handling suspension duties, it houses telescopic forks on the front and a monoshock suspension on the rear.
And, what about pricing?
According to reports, the new Matte Black model will cost the same as the existing Suzuki Burgman Street variants. Therefore, it is expected to arrive at a price of around Rs. 69,200 (ex-showroom) in India.
